actually, there has been no confirmed  sight on #6 since he was last seen with Dreadlocks early January. Meanwhile Deadlock has been seen alone on other occasions more recently.

They have been skinny and sometimes limping for more than a month now.

It definitly is a factor, but at this point theres definitly something along with that that contributes to their unpromising and worrying state. 
also good to remember that they were 7 at the end of 2022 and beginning of 2023, and were fine except for the sixth male. Now that they seem to be wandering in 'smaller groups' it is a bit contradictory to not be able to feed themselves and this be the main factor for the bad condition of at least 4/5 individuals Reply
